I'm currently trying to diagnose an issue with my Firefox. Ever since I upgraded to macOS Sequoia on my MacBook Pro, certain stylized/formatted texts in Firefox have not been showing up correctly in the browser. I've attached an example below from YouTube. The part of the stylized title text that says "Playlist" is messed up on the YouTube page, but it's correctly rendered in the tab bar. Pasting the YouTube video title into the search bar renders the text correctly in the search bar, but not in the actual search window or results page. I'm also seeing this issue on Instagram, Twitter, etc., so it isn't just a problem with YouTube/Google. The text renders correctly in Chrome and Safari, so I don't think it's necessarily a problem with my computer.

Here's what I've tried so far to diagnose/fix the issue:

• Quitting Firefox and restarting my computer: didn't work
• Opening Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode: the text remains messed up
• Deleting prefs.js from my profile folder: my Firefox stops working and no pages load, not even the New Tab page
• Firefox Refresh: also did not work
• Creating a fresh Firefox profile: the new profile renders the text correctly, but signing into my Firefox account on the profile causes the issue to come up again
• Uninstalling Firefox completely, reinstalling: the text renders, but once again signing into my account causes the issue to reemerge
• Opening Firefox on my old computer (also MacBook Pro) while signed into my Firefox account: for some reason, the stylized text renders correctly on this computer

I'm at a dead end right now, and would appreciate any help. I could always just create a new profile and forget about it, but this has been driving me crazy for the past few hours. I really don't want to configure all my extensions and browser settings from the beginning, and I hope that I can keep using my original account.

Anyone have any idea what could be going wrong? Thank you!

Desktop Mac with Sonoma OS, up-to-date. Not signed into Mozilla. VPN is off. Extensions off. History, Cache and Cookies deleted. Restarted computer. Returned from a 10-day vacation and now I can't access secure banking websites on Firefox 130.0.1 but Chrome works without issue. I don't access banks that often so I can't say with assurance that the problem occurred over the last 10 days.

I use the Firefox Settings, Saved passwords page and click on the website address for the specific site there to ensure the username and password will load. Twice today, different banking institutions, I was unable to login. Continue to receive an error message. One was for Secure Connection Failed ... unable to verify data received from site. Second (different) site was for Web Server Error involving Cloudfare despite my Firefox settings set to use DNS Quad9, not Cloudflare. Currently set to Maximum Protection-Custom-Quad9 which has always functioned before. Have tried to use "Default Protection"and "Increased Protection" with no change in outcome.

If I have to copy and paste my username and password from Firefox to a Chrome site each time, there's no point in continuing to use Firefox.

Hi, i want to change my search language to US English but it keeps the BR Portuguese language on my search engine for Firefox (Google). Any way to help? Only Firefox itself changes the language.

It has been quite awhile since this happened, but I have missed using Firefox. I was prompted to download an update when I was on the browser website. When I downloaded the new version at that time, it no longer worked. I tried everything to get it to work again, but nothing helped. I probably even corrupted the profile.

What do I need to uninstall or delete to get a new version to work?  I am using Windows 11 on an HP desktop.

I'm running Firefox 130.0.1 (64-bit) and noticed when I read a foreign-language wikipedia article, I do not get the translation icon in the right end of the menu bar. All I see is the "Toggle reader view" icon and the "Bookmark this page icon." I can't figure out where it went. I saw another thread that asked people to check their General settings and "choose your preferred language for displaying pages" option, but it's already set to English (US).

I'm trying to use Firefox's autofill feature to save my address for food delivery sites, but I can't find the option to enable it in the settings. I've followed the help page instructions, but it's not showing up under Privacy & Security.

I'm using many version on [your operating system]. Any advice on how to fix this? Would love to get my food orders filled in faster!

Thanks for the help!

My settings are Standard for Privacy and Security. I disabled Total Cookie Protection for this website and when I try to login I consistently get this error message. "We're sorry, an unexpected error has occurred. Please try again." I have no issue when logging in using Safari.

Does anyone know what prevents access to this website when using Firefox? Thanks.

Hi,

I have a big issue with my Firefox account.

Today I tried to changed my password. But everytime, I had the error message "Current password is wrong".

So, to change my password, I decided to reset my password with a recovery key, to keep all my data (passwords, bookmarks, etc)

I changed my password successfully.

But unfortunately, I can't connect/link my Firefox account anymore to my Firefox browser (Windows 10) and to my Firefox mobile app (Android 14).

When I try to do it, I have the message "Connection to Firefox has been established" (in French).

After that, I am connected to my Firefox account on Mozilla website. But I am not connected to my account on Firefox browser (Windows 10) and on Firefox mobile app (Android 14).

This is not normal.

Moreover, if I look to the history of my connections, I see the messages: "Connection to the account failed".

So, I think there is an issue on my Firefox account. I can't connect it / link it anymore to Firefox browser (Windows 10) and Firefox mobile app (Android 14). Before I reset my password with the recovery key, I hadn't this bothering issue.

But if i try with a other Firefox account, there is no issue. I can link it to Firefox browser of Firefox mobile app.

I need to link/connect my Firefox account again to Firefox browser and Firefox mobile app. I have all my passwords and bookmarks on it. It's very important!

This issue is very bothering... It's not normal that I can't link my Firefox account anymore to my Firefox browser and Firefox mobile app whereas I can connect to my Firefox account on Mozilla website.

I have already uninstall and reinstall the Firefox browser (Windows 10) and Firefox mobile app (Android 14), but the issue still there.

Could you help me, please?

I look forward to hearing from you,

Regards,

Stixen

Firefox is displaying menus IN CONTENT (not the Firefox hamburger) as hamburgers when they are supposed to be full text menus. Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome display these menus IN THE CONTENT correctly. Firefox is turning them into burgers.

This is happening with a website I own. It started when I changed ONE side menu on ONE web page to a hamberger. Firefox then began displaying ALL menus on ALL pages as drop-down burgers. The other two browsers did not engage in this stupidity.

These three images are the same page at the same time.

Hi,

For the past couple of months, FF has been running insanely slow. It takes several minutes for webpages to load. My full-fibre broadband is up to speed, I've cleared the cache numerous times, I've disabled most of my extensions, I'm running the latest version, and I only have 5-6 tabs open max.

When things are really slow, the task manager shows that FF is using huge amounts of memory, with more FF processes showing that I have tabs open.

According to a thread last year, Malwarebytes Browserguard was slowing FF down. Is this still the case? If so, what non-slowing alternative do you recommend? I don't want to turn it off until I have another one installed.

Thanks!

How can I disable the toolbar when using Firefox PDF Reader? I found some info here:https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1119523. But maybe there is easier way this can now be done? I would like to disable the toolbar only for viewing PDF in full screen mode. Thank you
